Chapter 36: Conspiracy
As a serious person, as a civilized person who has received nine years of compulsory education, as a modern person who is accustomed to order, and as a middle-aged otaku who once gained weight, Gao Xian does not like to solve problems with violence.
After becoming Gao Xian, he slowly got used to practicing and refining the elixir, got used to the mud house and wooden bed, got used to the feces and urine all over the floor, and got used to the half-headed evil spirits running around the floor.
However, he was still not used to killing people.
The last time, Zhu Qinnan jokingly said that she would help him kill Zhu Hongan, but he just thought it was a joke.
This time when the old topic was brought up again, Gao Xian didn't dare to treat it as a joke, and he couldn't treat it as a joke anymore.
If he was caught by Zhu Hongan, he would be miserable. However, he killed people before Zhu Hongan made any move. He couldn't get over it! Gao Xian raised his head and glanced at Zhu Qiniang. Zhu Qiniang looked calm, but there was a bit of coldness and toughness in her green eyes.
He was a little confused about Zhu Qinnan. He didn't know whether she was doing this for his own good or whether she had a deep grudge against Zhu Hongan and wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge.
Gao Xian asked, "Qiniang, Shopkeeper Zhu is not just one person, he is a family, and he has the support of the elders of Lianyun Sect behind him.
"We killed Manager Zhu. How are we going to explain this to the Zhu family and to that elder?"
Zhu Qiniang had a plan for this. She said, "Zhu Hongan always goes to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs. We can find a chance to kill him in the mountains without anyone knowing. No one will know it was us."
Gao Xian felt that Zhu Qinnan's plan was too crude. Zhu Hongan disappeared inexplicably, and the Zhu family must track down the murderer.
Could he and Zhu Qiniang really escape the pursuit? However, Zhu Qiniang was determined and did not hesitate at all when it came to murdering Zhu Hongan.
He thought for a moment and said, "Qiniang, this is not a trivial matter. Once the truth is revealed, Lianyun Sect will never let us go. I need to think about it carefully..."
Zhu Qiniang looked at Gao Xian with complicated eyes. She hesitated to speak, and finally sighed softly, "If you hesitate, you will regret it."
She was somewhat disappointed with Gao Xian and had no mood for massage and health care anymore, so she turned around and left.
Gao Xian couldn't help but sigh as he watched Zhu Qinnan leave.
He understands a lot of principles, has read many historical stories, and has some life experiences.
The experience of a successful person may not be suitable for you. The story of a successful person is just a story.
Just like Ban Chao's killing of the enemy's envoy at night, if he succeeded, it would be a decisive and wise act. If he failed, it would be an impulsive and reckless act.
Han Xin suffered humiliation under the crotch, but he succeeded later, which shows that he was ambitious and flexible. If he did not succeed later, this behavior would be cowardly, incompetent and useless.
Those who come after can infer a thousand reasons from the results, but as the person involved, it is difficult to make an accurate judgment about the future.
According to his experience, each case must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis; there is no universal truth that will never change.
Gao Xian failed to reach an agreement with Zhu Qiniang, and he had no mood to practice, let alone make elixirs.
Back in the bedroom, he closed the doors and windows, lay on the bed and thought for a long time, but could not think of a solution to the problem.
He took out the Fengyue Baojian, on which the spiritual light of humanity had accumulated to three thousand nine hundred and ninety-two points.
As Huang Ying sold Tiangui Dan in large quantities, Gao Xian discovered that Tiangui Dan could also increase human spiritual light.
Over three months, the combination of Tiangui Dan and Lujiao San had helped him accumulate nearly four thousand points of human spiritual light.
Gao Xian originally wanted to upgrade the Electric Photovoltaic Dragon Hand, but when he saw that the human spiritual light was accumulating so quickly, he changed his mind.
Although the Electric Photovoltaic Dragon Hand is good, it is far inferior to the Great Puppet Magic.
If he could upgrade his Great Puppet Magic to the Grandmaster level, he would be able to achieve great improvements in all aspects.
Besides, he was in good condition now, and there was no trouble to deal with, so he had been saving up his human spiritual light.
Today, things have changed.
"What a shame, what a shame..."
Gao Xian couldn't bear to look at those human spiritual lights. If he accumulated them for more than a month, it would be enough for five thousand points!
Gao Xian turned his gaze to the Zhen Yang Spear. Lao Wang was alive again and had become even more powerful. The Zhen Yang Spear must be upgraded.
After more than two months of non-stop practice, the Zhenyang Spear was only 431 points away from reaching the Grandmaster level.
With the addition of human spiritual light, the True Yang Spear was upgraded to the Grandmaster level in the blink of an eye.
Sister Lan emerged from the depths of the mirror. She didn't move her hands or open her mouth, but a flash of golden light in the depths of her eyes had already prompted the release of a golden spear.
Gao Xian's brows felt hot, and all kinds of techniques of using the True Yang Spear poured into the depths of his consciousness like a tide. He felt that his spiritual consciousness was constantly expanding and growing.
After reaching a certain limit, the divine consciousness suddenly exploded, and a ball of golden light rose from the darkness...
It was unknown how long it had been before Gao Xian opened his eyes, only to find that it had already darkened.
This time, it took at least half an hour to upgrade the Zhenyang Spear to the grandmaster level.
The wooden window in the bedroom is very small, and the grid made of rough and hard solid wood can prevent people from entering through the window.
The thick mulberry window paper blocks out most of the daylight.
The room was very dark at this time, but Gao Xian could see the delicate texture of the wood on the grid.
The dim light environment could no longer block his sight.
It's a wonderful feeling.
It's like watching a black and white movie, where everything turns black and gray, but the details are not covered up.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Gao Xian could clearly tell the location of the sounds of insects and frogs outside the house.
In the closed bedroom, he could even sense a slight air flow.
There is no doubt that the upgrade of the True Yang Spear to the Grandmaster level has enhanced his spiritual awareness, thereby improving his six senses and even increasing the speed of his thinking reaction.
Unfortunately, Fengyue Baojian will not show changes in this regard.
Gao Xian opened the Fengyue Baojian and the first thing he saw was a change in his data panel.
Life expectancy has increased from 68 to 72 years.
He was greatly surprised, because the most important purpose of spiritual practice is immortality.
Living longer is also an instinct deep in the genes of every living being.
The master-level True Yang Spear increased his lifespan by four years. The annotations of the True Yang Spear also changed.
True Yang Spear: Use Yang energy to condense spiritual consciousness to forge an invisible spear, which can refine spiritual consciousness, break the soul, and kill evil spirits (1/2000 Grandmaster).
The power of the Grandmaster-level True Yang Spear has obviously been greatly increased.
As soon as Gao Xian had a thought, Sister Lan responded immediately. The golden True Yang Spear had already condensed and formed between her eyebrows, ready to be launched.
At this level, he no longer needed to make seals or chant mantras, and Sister Lan's response speed became even faster, truly enabling the instant release of the True Yang Spear.
Although Gao Xian had not tried it, he was very sure that he could now perform three consecutive stabs with the True Yang Spear.
If Lao Wang dares to show up again, he will send him to death with three consecutive shots.
While operating the True Yang Spear, Gao Xian also felt a wisp of black smoke sticking to his body.
Without anyone telling him, Gao Xian immediately understood that this was the evil spirit that Lao Wang left in him.
Only by relying on this evil connection can Lao Wang find him.
Because the True Yang Spear became stronger and stronger, the evil energy had become very weak.
As long as he activates the True Yang Spear, he will be able to completely eliminate this evil spirit.
Just as Gao Xian was about to take action, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
He put away the Zhenyang Spear. There was no need to rush to get rid of this evil spirit. Maybe it could still be useful!
The master-level True Yang Spear also gave Gao Xian more confidence, and he was able to do things more calmly...
